On the Sth instant, Baron JOHN PUKE, High Admiral and Knight of the Order of the Sword, was introduced at the Diet,' as a Member of the Swedish Nobility, and took.his slat among the Baruns of the Empire. ALTONA, Nov. 28.—According to a Royal Ordi ince issued this day, the exportation of colonial produce to foreign countries, has been entirely pro hibited. HAMBURGH, DEC. 4.—The conferences which are held between the French Minister REINHARD and BOURIENNE, and the Deputies of the Hanseatic towns, are still continued. The point hitherto discussed is merely this—how far the situation and constitution of the said cities may - best be made to. square with the general system of the Continent: The question, whether they are to be received Members of the Confederation of the Rhine, is not yet decided, but it seems to 'be perfeally settled that they are to pre serve their independence under. the protection of the French Emperor. We this day lay before our Readers a consider able portion of a Dispatch from the Governor-Ge neral and Supreme Council at B enga l to Sir G EORGE BARLOW, respecting the late disturbances. which have taken place, and in fad} it may be considered as an Address to the Army at Madras, in conse quence of their condu&. We aro glad to have this opportunity of stating, that there is every reason to believe that the accounts which have been recently circulated upon this subjea have been most grossly. exaggerated. 'The Opposition Writers having tacitly acknow ledged the falsehood of the statement which they made a few days ago, respeding the dissenions in the Cabinet, now console themselves by predieling the downfall of the present Ministers as soon as Par liament meets: The partial failure of the Expedi.. tipn.to Walcheren is avowed to be the ground upon which all their 'hopes rest. We should have sup posed that if these Gentlemen had any ;regard for the feelings of their patrons, they would nqt declaim quite so loudly upon this subjed,—they would net contend that the failUre of an Expedition was .a proof of the incapacity .of an Administration, and ought to be made a ground of their dismission. The late Administration did Venture upon three Ex peditions, and if their talents are to be estimated by the success of these attempts, certainly a more im becile Administration' never existed, for every one of th etn cOmpletely (ailed. It can hardly be neces- Baty to recall to the, recolleaion of our Readers tht:- . re.,ult of the Expeditions to Egypt, to the Darda nelles, and to Buenos Ayres; they failed in every point; and yet the advocates of that Administra fru now contend that it ought to be restor e d t o power; to atone, we sUppose, by future rigour, for former apathy, and that the. Country ought to withdraw its confidence from those who have some- times failed, in order to bestow it upon those who have never succeeded. The reinforcements about to be sent to Portugal, amount to about 10,00() men, and it is understood that with -these reinforcements 'Lord WELLINGTON has declared he can defend Portugal against the ene my—at least that he can defend it for a considerable -time.' General C. S'I 4 EWARTy Lord CASTLEREAGH'S brother, arrived OnWedneiday at Portsthouth, to em bark- for POrtugal, with the reinforcerr nts --of arid-. lery, &cc. that have been for some time under orders to Join the army in that place. • • The command of the rear-guard, and the final evacuation of all the ports in Walcheren, were com mitred to Colonel STEWART; of the both, and to :Colonel Pi.cx, of the 7lst. A Letter lately received at Belfast from Kingston, says . - 1 ‘ On the 22d July, Brigadier-Ge-, neral•FßENcti (of whom so much mention was made during the proceedings in the House of Corn _mons respecting the Duke of Yonx), arrived here .from St. Domingo, very sick. He was carried to the house of a Mrs. CLARKE, where he died on the 26th. On the 24th the packet arrived from England, and brought an order for his dismissal from the service, but it was never communicated to him." On'New Year's Day the Sheriffs of London di reated every priso tier in Newgate,, Ludgate, and the two Comptors, to have one pound of beef, a pint of porter, and a pound and an half of bread.

It.:Will detract nothing from the respect, though it may abate somewhat of the admiration with which the Persian 'Ambassador is viewed, to know, that the ridiculous stories which have • been spread abroad of the 'multiplicity of his family are wholly without foundation. He is married to a near rela tion of . the Queen of PERSIA, and has but one child. He is nephew to ,HAJEE IBRAHIM, late Prime Mi nister of Persia, to whom the present King is in debted for the Throne, and who was one of the ablest men - that PerSia ever produced. The pre sent. King of PEastA has fifty-six sons ; and hence, perhaps, has arisen the mistake in ascrib ing the offsPring, of the Sovereigh to his Repre sentative. •• .Sittings appointed in Middlesex and London, be- fore the Itight.

Mr. J—L a few ,mornings since having attended an. invitation to breakfast with a dignified brother Barrister, not less semiaerit for economy than tar his lrigal knowledge, the repast was served in by a long lean footman, a neat - relation to the lay-brother in the Duenna ; two. veneers of hard dry toast were pre sented on a silver rack, accompanied by two prints of butter, each not larger than a half-crown piece.-- The - entertainer hospitably pressed his guest to help himself, when the witty advocate, mounting 'his . spectacles, began to explore the plate which held the butter with the point of his knife. His host asked, with some surprise," What the d—l he wps at with, his spectacles ?" .To which Mr. J. an swered, " That he was always obliged to use spec tacles in perusing small prints. an Monday night a fire broke out in the Stable of a Gentleman at Ripley, Surrey, whiCh destroyed the same, and the welling-house. The accident was occasioned by a boy setting fire to the thatch of the stable, whilst catching sparrows with a clap' net. Property to the amount of about 20001. was destroy ed, half of which was .insured. On Friday se'nnight,as some workmen were cut ting down an elm belonging to Mr. Jepson, of Corns brough, they discovered, in the heart of the tree, a hiirse-shoe with a nail in it, in excellent preserva tion, It is supposed that it must have lain in the tree for 50 years.

Yesterday about 300 persons, consisting of icon siderahle numbenof those who bad been chiefly in strumental in compelling the Proprietors of Covent Garden Theatre -to rescind their new Regulations, and many friends of the latter, assembled at the Crown and Anchor Taver n , i n or d er t o confirm the amicable sentiments which had taken place in both parties, And to bury all sense of former animosity. Mr. CLIFFORD, who was appointed to the Chair, entered the room about five o'clock, accompanied by Mr. KEMBLE and Mr. HARRIS, km. The'din ner was excellent, and served up with all due rep• larity and attention. As soon as the cloth was re moved, Mr. CLIFFORD arose, and gave as the first toast, " THE KING," which was received with such a loyal enthusiasm, as to shew, that though ‘. foul things . may have crept" among the party who opposed the Managers, the general body had no seditious objeas in view, but were animated by what they considered as the rights of the public:—; The second toast gi ven by the Chairman was "The Voice of the people;" . and this of course was well received by the company. A humorous song was - then given by a Mr. JONES. The Chairman's third toast was ," The Trial by Jury ;." and this was'na turally heard with shouts of approbation, and with " three times three." Three musical Gentlemen then gratified the company with a glee, which was followed by another toast from the Chairman, " The Stage," and it was warmly applauded, as • well as the next toast, " The ancient and inalien able 'Judicature of the Pit." The Wailer, whO re peated this toast, proved, by . his manner of deliver . - intit, that he was not quite learned enough to-. comprehend it, and his ludicrous variations from . the text excited no small degree of merriment in the company. The next toast in order was; "May this happy Reconciliation prove equally advanta , , -geons to .the Public in amusement,, and to the Pro prietori in emolument." Here the liberal feelings of JOHN BULL broke forth, for the latter part of the sentiment seemed to gratify- the company much more than what related to themselves as a part of the Public.. This toast, and the cordial manner in which it was received, drew up Mr. KattaLE,. - who, in the name of Mr. HARRIS and himself, warmly thanked the company, and heartily drank to their health. After another song, a Mr. MILLER proposed "the health of Mr.CLIFFORD, the wort hyChairman." The same warmth which had marked the pre. ceding toasts and sentiments was excited by this, and when the applause subsided, Mr. Clifford ad dressed' the Meeting as follows : . ".Gentlemen—ln returning you my most sincere' thanki for the honour doneme- by placing me in this Chair, and the more so by now drinking my health, I am unfortunate in not being able to gratify any ex peetation which might have been formed, that I should enter into a discussion of the circumstances which 'occasioned this Meeting, it having been thought desirable, that all that had passed should be buried in ottlivion, and it having been my fixed intention to say nothing that could 'oe construed by the ill-intentioned ; into a reflection upon what has . occurred. Let me, however, Gentlemen, be per mitted to say a word or two, on a.circutnstnnce col lateral to the present subject. In a late cause in which I was the Plaintiff, it was stated in the reports in the newspapers, of that trial, to have been said, that I was the leader of an infuriated mob, who sought to revolutionize .the Country, to subvert the Consti tution., and overthrow the Monarchy. Gentlemen, in a late investigation in the House of Comrnoes, respelling the Duke of York, brought forward by, Col. Wardle, rather a dangerous assertion was made by Mr. Cawing - , that infamy must rest somewhere, either on the head of the accused, or' the accuser.— We all know the result_ of that investigati6n..:-. Gentlemen,. with respect to the assertion relateye les my conduct, stated to have been made, it'haS been declared by you all; it - has been declared by the pub lic voice, from the Orkneys fo the Lands End, that infamy cannot rest with me ; I am sure it cannot rest with you ; let it then remain not as a brilliant and splendid light, but as a dim and:pale halo round the hoary head of him 'who dared to utter the calumny. Gentlemen, I happened to be placed in a situation in which I had a n o pp or t un it y o f support i ng the rights of the public, and I endeavoured to do my duty. ' Something was said on a late trial for ^a con spiracy, of a de?irts to court poptilarity, and the Counsel on the opposite side seemed very anxious to 'repel the charge. Something %s as 'also said on the uncertain nature of popular opinion, and the man ner in which it deserted those to - whom i t h a d f or• merly been fondly attached ; but an error has some.: times arisen upon this subject, in supposing that popularity is attached to an individual, instead of the principles which he espotises. - If he only makes po pularity'- stalking-horse to his ambition—a mere ladder to mount to the objeals to which he aspires, then he aught not to be surprised if popularity leaves him when he ceases to support those principles, his attachment to Which first obtained, him the approba• • tion of the Public. It is in vain he asserts that he is unchanged ; he i ;in the situation of the lands man, who, on his fist voyage at sea, imagines that the houses, the trees, the Cattle, and even the l an d itself, recedes from hi s v i ew , till at length he dis covers that it is he alone who moves. Thus it hap pens frequently with him who complains of losing popularity, when he himself has deserted those principles which first obtained for him popular ap plause. Gentlemen, I have only to repeat my thanks for, the honour you have done me, and to drink all your healths." It is hardly necessary to observe that this speech was received with reiterated applause. • After a short time passed in conversation, - a Mr. BONNAM arose, and having pad a few compliments to the Chairman and to the company, introduced the name of Mr. BRANDON, and reCornmended him as a fitohjeCt to share in the general amnesty, as all he had done must have proceeded fro: - .1 a zealous senie of duty. - _ ;This speech was received with mingled censure and approbation, but Mr. CLIFFORD arose, and again addressed the coma any to the following evert. He observed, that the subject now intro duced. had not been overlooked by the Committee Who bad,proposed and arranged the present Meet ing;, but . that atter 'due consideration, it was deter mined; that - as the dinner was essentially designed as a reconciliatory testival, it would be proper to avoid; every thing that might tend to interrupt its harmony. i i 4
